    Well, if nothing has been deducted from your bank account, then it sounds like a scam.

     

    Exactly how did you discover this? Who told you there was a deduction? Did you get an email or a phone call? Both of those would be scams.

     

    We need more info on the situation.

    Are you sure - checked your bank account - or just an email saying this amount has been charged.

     

    If an email - here's hoping you didn't even open it.

    Report it to your bank as an unauthorised charge.

     

    Or…

     

     

    You can try to work out what it might have been. What causes you to think it was related to eBay?

     

    Has anyone in your household access to your eBay account, PayPal account, bank account?

     

    Have you made a purchase but forgotten about it? (Check your eBay purchase history. Also check whether you purchased anything while not logged in, or logged in under another account - via Facebook or similar.)

     

    Fo you have any eBay subscriptions or other relevant subscriptions?

     

    How did you become aware of this withdrawal? Were you contacted by phone? Could it be one of the many scam calls falsely telling you that your account was compromised and an unauthorised purchase was made?

     

    Did you check your bank account in a clean new tab?

     

    Hopefully you have not downloaded a programme or app that gives access to third parties, such as Team Viewer…

    You need to report this to your bank

     

    This is not a technical issue with eBay (what you have posted it under

     

    There is nothing other members can do, or look into

     

    Since it is on your actual bank statement, from almost two months ago now, you need to do something

     

    If you are certain you have not purchased anything for this amount, and nobody who you allow to use your account has bought something, you need to report it....as you were advised back when you first posted

     

    I'd assume you know what you buy via eBay, (especially that kind of amount, it's not a small purchase you might easily forget about buying)  but have you changed the drop down menu in your purchase history to cover that time?  (not just the default time period that it opens up on) 

     

    Have you done that yet?

    Sending a photo of your statement doesn't help anyone here at all.  PLEASE do as was suggested on 4/1/23 and get onto your bank.  Doing nothing wont get it sorted.

    Do you pay via PayPal?

     

    Log into your PayPal account, and look through your transactions there.

     

     

    If you cannot identify the purchase, even after checking all of your email accounts and your PayPal transactions, report it as a suspicious transaction to your bank. If you’re wrong and it was legitimate, at least you will be able to say honestly that you have made every effort to identify the transaction.
